Looking for Volunteers

  • Organization: Melrose Council on Aging

  • Contact person: Deborah Rizzo
  • Phone: 781-665-4304
  • Email: drizzo@cityofmelrose.org

If you can spare 1-2 hours per week, we would like to offer you the opportunity to experience the rewards of a new friendship.  We are looking for volunteers to match with isolated and homebound seniors in the Melrose Community.  Your weekly visit to them will mean so much.   

As a volunteer you will: 

  • Do important and rewarding work
  • Gain satisfaction, a greater self knowledge and personal growth
  • Be a comfort and supportive presence to clients and their families

 Some of the activities you might share together include: 

  • Friendly Conversation
  • Read together
  • Playing cards
  • Do a jigsaw puzzle
